Okay, seriously, what is this board actually giving you that's new? Besides forcing you to down to only a few case choices (not that those serious benchers would be using any case at all)? The standard classified could already do 4-way SLI. Gold-plated pins? Gold's a worse conductor than copper, and if corrosion is a concern, you're doing something wrong. No PCI slots? It ain't dead yet. The power circuits seem to be the same. So what's the point?
